Surround yourself with the serenity and beauty of the Wisconsin North woods and save on driving time. Knight Lake is a secluded, 14-acre spring-fed, glacial lake nestled deep in old growth Hemlocks and pines in southeast Lincoln County. Just 25 minutes north of Wausau, our location offers easy access to the hidden treasures of the Merrill and Tomahawk area.

Here you'll discover a peaceful place to unwind, have a romantic get-away or reconnect with family and nature. Fish for bass, northern or pan fish. Rentals include private dock and rowboat (canoe or paddle boat also available). Note: trolling motors allowed only on this "No Wake Lake".

Motivated by the desire to preserve and share the gift of this special place, owners Mark and Irene Mehlos have lovingly updated and restored two lakeside cabins built in the 1940's and 50's with ecology and comfort in mind.

We offer seasonal rentals by week ( 6 nights, from Friday to Thursday) , from May into October. Weekend rentals are offered in Early season & Fall and at other times based on availability. For details, click on cabin page links (above).
